automatically read the code.
The CR2300 will beep and the good read indicator will flash green to
indicate a ‘good read’ has occurred. (Figure 12)

top of the secured weighted base (Figure 3) and secure to the base with
the screws provided (Figure 3)
5. Plug the USB cable into the computer’s USB port or the power adapter
into the wall outlet.
Charging a CR2300
Batteries ship with approximately 50% battery life
and should be completely charged before initial use.
Approximate time to charge a depleted battery is 4
hours via USB cable and 2 1/2 hours via AC power
supply.
To charge a reader,
remove the plastic ‘Remove
Before Use’ cap, and place the reader into the
Charging Station. (Figure 9)
When the reader is seated correctly, the Charging
Indicator LED (Figure 9) will turn green.
Weighted Base Adapter Plate
The weighted base has the same pre-drilled mounting holes as the ECS-H and UMC Chargers.
